Canadian/Hungarian director Tibor Takács who once wowed genre fans with the underrated The Gate and I, Madman unleashes his latest effort, Spiders. A silly creature feature about mutated spiders from outer space invading New York. Kind of funny because Gary Jones made the exact same film back in 2000, also titled Spiders.

The 2000 film does look better, and I remember it being quite entertaining to me personally, but the same thing? Come on. I wanted to make a film called "Spiders" about giant spiders when I was in second grade.

Well, how many giant spiders from outer space movies are there? They are usually exposed to chemicals, radiation or some gen-experiment. There are certainly different ways to tell a story about giant spiders. In a Spider's Web comes to mind for example. Spiders (2013) just seems lazy and the similarities to Spiders (2000) seem very suspicious to me
